Memory model (computing) — In computing, a memory model describes the interactions of threads through memory and specifies the assumptions the compiler is allowed to make when generating code for segmented memory or paged memory platforms. History and significance A memory … Wikipedia
C memory model — Memory models in the C programming language are a way to specify assumptions that the compiler should make when generating code for segmented memory or paged memory platforms.For example, on the 16 bit x86 platform, six memory models exist. They… … Wikipedia
Atkinson–Shiffrin memory model — Note that in this diagram, sensory memory is detached from either form of memory, and represents its development from short term and long term memory, due to its storage being used primarily on a run time basis for physical or psychosomatic… … Wikipedia
Atkinson-Shiffrin memory model — The Atkinson Shiffrin model, Multi store model or Multi memory model is a psychological model proposed in 1968 by Richard Atkinson and Richard Shiffrin as a proposal for the structure of memory. It proposed that human memory involves a sequence… … Wikipedia
Flat memory model — In computer systems design, a flat memory model refers to a linear addressing paradigm, such that the CPU can directly (and sequentially) address all of the available memory locations, without having to resort to any sort of bank switching or… … Wikipedia
Java Memory Model — The Java memory model describes how threads in the Java programming language interact through memory. Together with the description of single threaded execution of code, the memory model provides the semantics of the Java programming language.… … Wikipedia
Intel Memory Model — The Intel x86 cpu has six memory models which control how the segment registers are used and the default size of pointers. Contents 1 Memory segmentation 2 Pointer sizes 3 Memory models 4 … Wikipedia
Memory consolidation — is a category of processes that stabilize a memory trace after the initial acquisition.[1] Consolidation is distinguished into two specific processes, synaptic consolidation, which occurs within the first few hours after learning, and system… … Wikipedia
Memory barrier — Memory barrier, also known as membar or memory fence or fence instruction, is a type of barrier and a class of instruction which causes a central processing unit (CPU) or compiler to enforce an ordering constraint on memory operations issued… … Wikipedia
Memory architecture — describes the methods used to implement electronic computer data storage in a manner that is a combination of the fastest, most reliable, most durable, and least expensive way to store and retrieve information. Depending on the specific… … Wikipedia
